  • Apple debuts new MacBook Air with Apple Silicon M1 chip

    I notice the price is the same as before, so rather than dropping the price due to cheaper CPU and increasing accessibility for people, they're just absorbing the extra profit. Great, that's the Cook Way. ߙ䦬t;/div>
    You aren’t buying a collection of parts, your buying functionality.

    If you don’t think the value proposition works for you, don’t buy it.  Frankly I’m surprised they didn’t raise the price - this little thing called inflation means they are already grossing less just from that alone.  

    If you want cheap crap there are plenty of other vendors to choose from out there.  Have at it.   I have no problem paying for a better experience.  I originally typed out paying more for a better experience, but comparing previous Air to this one you aren’t paying more for a machine that appears to be better in every way.

    Yup - damn those greedy Apple bustards!
    Lol yeah these dudes crack me up, they’re used to lemonade stand economics and that’s about it. No real world experience in product, don’t grasp value propositions, likely have never run a business, etc etc.. Just IT nerds doin what they do best — bitchin’. 
    What’s with you and the IT bashing today? Somebody make Mr. Disposable Income angry at work this week?

  • Apple launches iPhone 12 Studio to promote cases and wallet

    It would have been cool to have this before the preorders began. And for some reason the leather cases are absent. I’m curious about the wallets, but will probably wait to see if silicon versions are ever released. 
    Has anyone in AI-land tried out the wallets yet? I’m interested in real world (non journalist/blogger) feedback about things such as quality, durability, and magnet strength.

  • What to expect during today's Apple Silicon 'one more thing' Mac special event

    Didn’t Kuo say that the AirPods X could end up being a Beats product? And didn’t Apple just quietly release Beats Flex last week? Is it possible that this is what he was referring to? Can we put a pin in the AirPods X rumors now?
